Re: rxvt doesn't paste selections anymore?

[Thomas Mellman]

Okay, I just discovered something more about this problem.

I have an older version of CYGWIN running on another machine, and it does not
exhibit this behaviour.

BUT, when I execute the version of rxvt.exe (over the net) from that machine under
my up-to-date cygwin, the same problem with pasting exists.  So, it seems the problem
is not in rxvt itself... could there be a problem with the DLL?

Re: rxvt doesn't paste selections anymore?

[Pierre A. Humblet]

Here is my experience on NT4.0, rxvt v2.7.2
Same results with July cygwin1.dll and latest from cvs.

1) Right-sift + insert works fine inside an rxvt window
2) Pasting across windows crashes.

The setting of CYGWIN on my system brings up gdb.
The interaction is shown below.

I was also able to strace it. See part of the trace below.
I will send the entire 300kB on request.

An interesting line is:
  216 17128796 [main] rxvt 309 select_stuff::~select_stuff: deleting select records

Shift-Left-click?  Are you left-handed?

Anyway, I'm using the same version as you and I still can't paste.  Also, Shift-Insert
dumps core.  John Murga says the problem is in libW11.dll.  I don't know how to
determine the version of that (it doesn't seem to show up in the cygcheck output).

I saw something on the rxvt mailing list that the problem has been
recognized and that there's a patch that will be appearing Very Soon Now.
It would be nice if someone knows about this to say a word or two about it.

The link on www.rxvt.org for Windows use points to cygwin, so it would seem
this is "in-thread".

Poor shorthand for holding the shift key down while pressing the left mouse
button.

Insert and Shift-Insert both work for me, as does pressing the middle
(scroll) mouse button.


Cheers,

Alistair.

RE: rxvt doesn't paste selections anymore?

[Deragon, Hans]

You sort of helped me by inspiring me to look more closely how I started my
script.  I solved the dos box persistence.  I used to call my script with:

  U:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login ~/bin/x50 &

But it should have been:

  U:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login ~/bin/x50

i.e., no & at the end.  I do not know why I have put an & there.

But cut&paste does not work across rxvts and I have the save version as you
have.  It seams that for a few fellows, cut&paste does not work while for
others it does.  cut&paste does work within the same rxvt and in my case,
the middle button is used.  At home, with WinXP Home, cut&paste works fine
across rxvts.  At work, with WinNT 4.0, it does not.

On another note, I noticed that when shutting down the computer, I am not
asked to kill the rxvts zombies running in the background anymore.  Remember
that even though you would kill all rxvts running, when shutting down the
computer, you would be asked to terminate tasks related to rxvt?  It seams
that this has been fixed. ;)


Ciao
Hans

Re: rxvt doesn't paste selections anymore?

[Alistair Grant]

Hi Hans,

I'm glad I was able to help a bit.

Clicking the middle (scroll) button also works for me, as does Insert and
Shift-Insert.

I should have said that I'm running Windows XP SP1, although it has worked
with W2K (various SPs) and XP without SP1.

When I shut down XP SP1 I *do* have to kill the zombies (I can't remember
about the earlier OS's)!

Cheers,

Alistair.

Re: rxvt doesn't paste selections anymore?

[Deragon, Hans]

Found the same problem.  On both of my machines, rxvt 2.7.2 is running.
Yet, the one with the latest version of cygwin is broken, as you described.
Pretty anoying since this cut&paste function is the #1 kill feature of rxvt.
I might revert to the DOS window to be able to perform cut&paste.

I also have another new problem with rxvt.  Following is the path in the
shortcut I use to start rxvt:

U:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login ~/bin/x50

This x50 script calls rxvt with numerous options.  A dos window does show up
when called, followed by rxvt.  On my machine with the old cygwin, the dos
window dissapear quickly (rxvt is called with & at the end to run in the
background, thus the dos window exits after rxvt is started).  On the new
Cygwin, the dos window persist; I must kill it manually.  Killing it does
not kill the rxvt though, as it runs in the background.  Same
settings/scripts on both machines, but different behaviors.


Sincerely,
Hans Deragon

Try the "run" utility:
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/run/index.html
I use the following shortcut to start an xterm:

C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\xterm.exe -display
localhost:0 -ls -bg #000000 -rv -fn 10x20 -rw -cu -si -sk -sb -sl 5000 +cn
-T local_xterm -n local_xterm

Beware that by default run maxes out at 20 command line arguments.  If you
need more, change the MAX_ARGS define in run.h before compiling.

      If you had copied the "libW11.dll" it would have worked... that is where the problem is.

Re: rxvt doesn't paste selections anymore?

Hi...

I have a similar behaviour.... But only when having NO selection (or 
nothing in pasteboard).
rxvt locks up to 100% CPU and then must be killed.

All of a sudden, it seems that rxvt no longer pastes between windows.

I can make a selection and paste it into the same window, but nothing
happens if I try to paste it into another rxvt.  However, I can come back
to the originating rxvt and paste again.  The foreign (i.e. not originating)
rxvt can cat /dev/clipboard and see the selection.

This using the middle mouse button, configured as "middle mouse button".

Also, I just figured out about shift-insert, but unfortunately, it 
crashes rxvt.

I have a crash dump of rxvt.exe.stackdump if that would be interesting.
